Sanyo M9994k Custom LED Mod

Hello everyone.

After Modding my lil  baby Sanyo m7880 without ever getting around to posting about it,

I decided to go ahead now that I am on vacation to start my project of Modding all my Boomboxes.

No I was not intent on destroying their collectors quality,

but enhancing their natural characteristics...

 

For example this Sanyo m9994...

Its shiny buttons and metalic top practically begged me to show them off in light.

Then theirs the dull bulb lighted screen.. It begged me to show its true potential!

Then their was the sad cassette compartment that cried to me, "what about me!, what about meeee!!"

So I had to do something about that as well... Lights to the rescue!

But wait those microphone holes were just too dull for such a beauty of a box,

so I had to jewel them with fake diamonds

Lets not forget those beautiful big meters on bottom just screaming for attention as well..

 

I did not want to diminish the collector value by changing the looks too much,

I only wanted to enhance its natural beauty, so polishing and cleaning was the second objective.

 

Here are the results, with more on the, "how-exactly-did-you-do-that" and pics to follow,

as soon as I get them up on photobucket:

LOOK!

Again

Yes it seems that putting Leds where we touch and control the unit,

gives it a greater sense of coolness and class that I didn't even realize until I completed the unit.
